>A phone could measure CO2 levels once every 10 minutes which would average under 0.01W, so that would work.
Not sure about that, at least NDIR sensors have to be at certain elevated temperature to work and they do some preheating when you turn them on from standby.
So it's not possible to just measure less often as then energy would have to be spent on heating the sensor.
